forkie Posted May 9, 2014 Share For the clever okes. If like mars we did not have a sea, then mt everest would be measured from what is the bottom of the ocean, and not from sea level. Which one would be bigger then? Edit. Maybe if i looked at the picture properly I would not ask such ridiculous questions Edited May 9, 2014 by facmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if i looked at the picture properly I would not ask such ridiculous questions The only issue with this that Mauna Kea is a single mountain that has formed on the abyssal plain so this mountains height can be taken from the abyssal plain. The distance from summit to the base of the abyssal plain at the -5500m isobath is only 85km. Mount Everest however cannot be measured to the abyssal plain as Everest is surrounded by other mountains in the mountain chain, as well has having 1500km between it and the Bay of Bengal ...

Hairy Posted May 9, 2014 Share This press was built in 1953 for aerospace manufacturer Lockheed Martin, but has since been converted for bicycle manufacturing. One of the advantages of this system is that different durometer pads can be substituted to alter shapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
